I just think trying to put a positive spin on their death and forceful removal is nothing shy of trying to cover up the misdeeds that happened. You're seeing the same thing try to happen in history books in America with slavery.It's important to note that the history of Native Americans post-"discovery" is not a story of death and decline, but rather of perseveranceI just really hate the pity parade circle jerk for Native AmericansConsidering based Andrew Jackson (Trail of Tears, and who for some reason is on the $20 bill when he hated the National Bank. Talk about irony) and "Manifest Destiny" were two things that essentially drove the Natives away and slaughtered them? Yeah I think it's pretty bad. They honestly DESERVE some pity, and while I'm not here going "it's da white mans fault now! Be ashamed!!!", I think we should all be aware of the tragedies and misdeeds our ancestors did. 9609

What else CAN they do? It's also odd how meeting a few of them represents the entire race of them.I've heard it from several Natives I met at various powwows I've been to. The last time I visited my friend's relatives that live on a reservation in New Mexico with him they think that exact same and its quite visible if you visit any reservation.You can't really believe that.yeah they're shitty people who enjoy living just like they did 500 years agohas anyone in this thread actually met a native american or been on a reservation?"HAVE YOU MET ONE, BRO?!

It's really crazy how we basically almost wiped an entire culture off the face of the map by killing, and forcefully relocating them.

America and Britain are the only ones who seem to give a fuck about military honestly.
But keep in mind that WW2 scared a lot of Europe from a big military, and Russia wouldn't dare invade lol. All of those countries united would spell the end of Russia. And honestly, you give Russia's military too much credit. They're trying to upgrade their military, yes, but their economy is still crippled and it would take years upon years to reach the US's power level in tech. 9618

One of them suffers from an identity crisis through apparently and seems to bounce between the two.Yeah, Bards aren't high DPS's. They're good in Raids with 8 people or more, but with 4? 2 of them is just trouble. 1 isn't really viable either.how is tank DPS in that game? in WOW tanks do the most damage up until like levels 70-80 and then theyre still competitive with most legit DPS classes up through endgame. And no, Bards ARE the subclass. The original class is Archer. They can do damage but you only want 1, since it's a support DPS. Our other DPS quit so we had another. For 4 players, 2 being support DPS and the other 2 being healer/tank, you're not gonna get through a bit where it's time sensitive. 9624

So we weren't killing the things we needed to in time and it was getting late and I had to do other things so I said screw it and got off. I just finished it about an hour ago though. I really think I need to do a different class. 9625

That's just not true. A lot of engineering feats, technology, basic hygiene, common sense, etc.but my collapse of Rome, Barbarians, and religious repression.all I know about the dark ages is that the europoors stole a bunch of books from the muslims and then they left the dark agesheres all you need to know about the "dark ages"- its a fucking myth All of that was lost and honestly the engineering feats are only recently being broken (i'm talking decades/centuries, not like 10 years ago). Fun fact: Rome at its height had more intricate and working road systems than the modern day US Highway system. 9629
